Text is easier to maintain. Text is at least an order of magnitude cheaper to host. When I screw up, I&#39;d rather edit a text file than re-edit and re-upload a video, or have to add &#34;PLEASE READ THE DESCRIPTION.&#34; <br/><br/>Text is more accessible. I&#39;d rather prepare text and alt-text for images than transcribe a whole video or podcast (or drain a few more gallons of Earth&#39;s water for AI to do it). 2025-01-12T19:39:21Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsd8xmhsfgshxpyjtgu9f4hghjtx3yf8zaluj3ldkqtpwehr8u5qgqzyzvu96pfxes8sgmw8sshv803fc2lt57sxkkgpyfm0jsnjjflhdrsqugajh0 This has been a helpful website for understanding XHTML. <a href="https://www.devguru.com/content/technologies/xhtml/tags-li.html">https://www.devguru.com/content/technologies/xhtml/tags-li.html</a> 2025-01-11T22:13:56Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqs9y7uqqu68tkv5map3ezqjfe2xvpq6vraavryf63t28gkyaugcvygzyzvu96pfxes8sgmw8sshv803fc2lt57sxkkgpyfm0jsnjjflhdrsqs2lm3m &#34;C&#39;mon let&#39;s get something to eat&#34; might be one of the funniest lines in any movie. <a href="https://youtu.be/3trbNiJcDMM?si=5kjdHShOWB1hNMjc">https://youtu.be/3trbNiJcDMM?si=5kjdHShOWB1hNMjc</a> 2025-01-11T05:32:12Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsfx7lc8hm2v9jf62yru3ddh7fsg3l2gr8gndhahe5q5l42atsry7gzyzvu96pfxes8sgmw8sshv803fc2lt57sxkkgpyfm0jsnjjflhdrsqhpmup0 Here&#39;s a new code bounty: I&#39;m looking for a REGEX that will match for a string that has an empty space, &#34; &#34;, on the left side, and the string &#34;&amp;mdash;&#34; on the right side.<br/><br/>My objective is to replace all instances of (&#34; &#34; + string + &#34;&amp;mdash;&#34;) with (&#34; &#34; + &#34;&lt;span class=&#39;mdash&#39;&gt; + string + &#34;&amp;mdash;&#34; + &#34;&lt;/span&gt;&#34;) in HTML. <br/><br/>I am paying $5. 2024-12-28T18:23:47Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsprdarhqj246zlskf07dqqeur66943y8v042ltmfhd2dnmyt42saczyzvu96pfxes8sgmw8sshv803fc2lt57sxkkgpyfm0jsnjjflhdrsq6aujke In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsw8k9yzt6dya8qfc5wyt96smrf3wsxnfq79mvf0t7825sxwnzkcscrv8jqh'>nevent1q…8jqh</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>I saw a Moist Critikal video about this.
